Greene Street Project

"Greene Street: A Long History of a Short Block" is a study of the historic development of the 486-feet strip of pavement, today known as Greene Street, between Houston and Prince Streets in the Soho neighborhood of Manhattan, New York. Today, the block is one of the richest in the city and the world. This research does a development case study at an extreme micro level (1 block in New York City), but over a long period of time (4 centuries).
